The Fixed Bed Extender takes the place of the stock tailgate with a fixed tubular steel structure. That's what frees up the additional bed storage area and lets a large spare sit flat on the bed floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill a 35-inch spare really fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the extender is laid out specifically so a tire up to 35\" mounts flat on the bed floor rather than eating vertical cargo space or riding on a rear carrier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it fit the XPEDITION ADV or ADV5?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This is built for the 2024+ XPEDITION XP\/5 bed configuration. The ADV models have a different rear layout — reach out before ordering for that platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it compatible with the DRT rear bumper and camera kit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It's fully compatible with the DRT Motorsports Polaris XPEDITION Rear Bumper, and it includes a dedicated mounting location for the DRT Adjustable Rear Camera Relocation Kit, sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes installation require drilling?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. It mounts to the factory lower tailgate locations and dedicated upper bed-side brackets, using the supplied alloy steel hardware and stainless retaining pins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I paint or powder coat it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The steel structure takes paint or powder coat well if you'd rather match it to your build than run the standard sand-textured black.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy DRT Motorsports\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDRT Motorsports builds Polaris XPEDITION-specific cargo and protection systems that work together rather than fighting each other. The Fixed Bed Extender is designed alongside DRT's rear bumper, tire carrier, chase rack, and camera relocation kit, so the pieces share mounting points and finish instead of forcing compromises. Welded steel, sand-textured powder coat, and factory mounting locations — built for overland loads and desert miles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFree up your XPEDITION bed.
